“They were expanding a lot without any legal basis," he said. "Now they [will be] the law…It's part of Israel now without any rights for me. It's annexation of the land without me, as a Palestinian." @Issaamro @BBCWorld

“They kill us in the morning and describe us as terrorists in the evening. They steal our land and describe us as thieves…” @Issaamro on the reality of living under Israeli apartheid and occupation.

[The New Arab @The_NewArab]

Issa Amro, a Palestinian activist nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize, spoke to The New Arab about living through a "de facto annexation" in the West Bank.

Life under occupation in the West Bank , November 19th. 2025.

[Friends of Hebron @FriendsHebron]

Israeli settlers attacked the house of Palestinian human rights defender @Issaamro — breaking the lock, hurling stones and damaging a CCTV camera. Soldiers were present, and instead of holding the settlers accountable, they tried to arrest Issa and confiscated his phone.

[Issa Amro عيسى عمرو 🇵🇸 @Issaamro]

Last night, Israeli settlers attacked my house with stones, they came at 4 am to throw stones and make fire on my family land, chanting about the death of my brother, and wishing that I will die too or killed.
Before that Israeli army came to make sure that I am alone in the house.
It is the reality of the Israeli occupation and apartheid.

[AJ+ @ajplus]

Palestinian activist @Issaamro spoke to AJ+ after he was harassed by Israeli soldiers over his appearance in a BBC documentary about Israeli settler attacks in the occupied West Bank.

“I’m paying a price.”

When Israeli authorities suspended Doctors Without Borders from operating in critical areas in Hebron, only a few people could cross the checkpoint to reach an alt. clinic. "Access to medical care should never be arbitrarily denied, impeded or blocked.”

🎙️ Palestinian human rights defender and 2024 #RightLivelihood Laureate @Issaamro sent us a voice note after settlers and soldiers raided his home in #Hebron — days after his appearance in BBC’s #TheSettlers.

🎧 Hear it in his own words ⤵️

[Issa Amro عيسى عمرو 🇵🇸 @Issaamro]

Yesterday 3 armed settlers 2 of them are in an army uniform came to my house gate, they are acting as militia, They came to intimidate me and my friend during the night. They are intimidating us to force us to leave our houses and not to speak about their racism, apartheid and occupation to international media.

"If you file a complaint against the Israeli settlers, you will be arrested." Issa was punished for giving a witness testimony and participating in an accredited documentary. Israeli settlers broke into his private yard in #Hebron while soldiers did little to stop or arrest them.
